Other features include driver adaptive shifting and three planetary gear sets to provide wide ratio capability with precise ratio steps for optimum driveability. The three planetary gear sets also make available a unique alternate second gear ratio. The primary 2nd gear ratio fits between 1st and 3rd gears for normal through-gear accelerations. The alternate second gear ratio (2prime) allows smoother 4-2 kickdowns at high speeds to provide 2nd gear passing performance over a wider highway cruising range. OPERATION TORQUE CONVERTER DESCRIPTION OPERATION REMOVAL INSTALLATION TRANSMISSION CONTROL RELAY DESCRIPTION OPERATION TRANSMISSION RANGE SENSOR DESCRIPTION OPERATION TRANSMISSION SOLENOID/TRS ASSEMBLY DESCRIPTION OPERATION REMOVAL INSTALLATION TRANSMISSION TEMPERATURE SENSOR DESCRIPTION OPERATION VALVE BODY DESCRIPTION OPERATION REMOVAL DISASSEMBLY CLEANING INSPECTION ASSEMBLY INSTALLATION The hydraulic portion of the transmission consists of the transmission fluid, fluid passages, hydraulic valves, and various line pressure control components. The primary mechanical components of the transmission consist of the following: Three multiple disc input clutches Three multiple disc holding clutches Five hydraulic accumulators Three planetary gear sets Dual Stage Hydraulic oil pump Valve body Solenoid pack The TCM is the heart or brain of the electronic control system and relies on information from various direct and indirect inputs (sensors, switches, etc.) to determine driver demand and vehicle operating conditions. With this information, the TCM can calculate and perform timely and quality shifts through various output or control devices (solenoid pack, transmission control relay, etc.).

2 DR AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION - 45RFE/545RFE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION - 45RFE/545RFE (Continued) TRANSMISSION IDENTIFICATION Transmission identification numbers are stamped on the left side of the case just above the oil pan sealing surface (Fig. 1). Refer to this information when ordering replacement parts. A label is attached to the transmission case above the stamped numbers. The label gives additional information which may also be necessary for identification purposes. Fig. 1 Transmission Part And Serial Number Location 1 - IDENTIFICATION NUMBERS (STAMPED) GEAR RATIOS The 45RFE gear ratios are: 1st :1 2nd :1 2nd Prime :1 3rd :1 4th :1 Reverse :1 GEAR RATIOS The 545RFE gear ratios are: 1st :1 2nd :1 2nd Prime :1 3rd :1 4th :1 5th :1 Reverse :1 OPERATION The 45RFE/545RFE offers full electronic control of all automatic up and downshifts, and features realtime adaptive closed-loop shift and pressure control. Electronic shift and torque converter clutch controls help protect the transmission from damage due to high temperatures, which can occur under severe operating conditions. By altering shift schedules, line pressure, and converter clutch control, these controls reduce heat generation and increase transmission cooling. To help reduce efficiency-robbing parasitic losses, the transmissions includes a dual-stage transmission fluid pump with electronic output pressure control. Under most driving conditions, pump output pressure greatly exceeds that which is needed to keep the clutches applied. The 45RFE/545RFE pump-pressure control system monitors input torque and adjusts the pump pressure accordingly. The primary stage of the pump works continuously; the second stage is bypassed when demand is low. The control system also monitors input and output speed and, if incipient clutch slip is observed, the pressure control solenoid duty cycle is varied, increasing pressure in proportion to demand. A high-travel torque converter damper assembly allows earlier torque converter clutch engagement to reduce slippage. Needle-type thrust bearings reduce internal friction. The 45RFE/545RFE is packaged in a one-piece die-cast aluminum case. To reduce NVH, the case has high lateral, vertical and torsional stiffness. It is also designed to maximize the benefit of the structural dust cover that connects the bottom of the bell housing to the engine bedplate, enhancing overall power train stiffness. Dual filters protect the pump and other components. A pump return filter is added to the customary main sump filter. Independent lubrication and cooler circuits assure ample pressure for normal transmission operation even if the cooler is obstructed or the fluid cannot flow due to extremely low temperatures. The hydraulic control system design (without electronic assist) provides the transmission with PARK, REVERSE, NEUTRAL, SECOND, and THIRD gears, based solely on driver shift lever selection. This design allows the vehicle to be driven (in limp-in mode) in the event of a electronic control system failure, or a situation that the Transmission Control Module (TCM) recognizes as potentially damaging to the transmission. The TCM also performs certain self-diagnostic functions and provides comprehensive information (sensor data, DTC s, etc.) which is helpful in proper diagnosis and repair. This information can be viewed with the DRB scan tool.

3 AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION - 45RFE/545RFE DR AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION - 45RFE/545RFE (Continued) DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION CAUTION: Before attempting any repair on a RFE automatic transmission, check for Diagnostic Trouble Codes with the DRB scan tool. Transmission malfunctions may be caused by these general conditions: Poor engine performance Improper adjustments Hydraulic malfunctions Mechanical malfunctions Electronic malfunctions Diagnosis of these problems should always begin by checking the easily accessible variables: fluid level and condition, gearshift cable adjustment. Then perform a road test to determine if the problem has been corrected or if more diagnosis is necessary. If the problem persists after the preliminary tests and corrections are completed, hydraulic pressure checks should be performed. DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - PRELIMINARY Two basic procedures are required. One procedure for vehicles that are drivable and an alternate procedure for disabled vehicles (will not back up or move forward). VEHICLE IS DRIVABLE (1) Check for transmission fault codes using DRB scan tool. (2) Check fluid level and condition. (3) Adjust gearshift cable if complaint was based on delayed, erratic, or harsh shifts. (4) Road test and note how transmission upshifts, downshifts, and engages. (5) Perform hydraulic pressure test if shift problems were noted during road test. (6) Perform air-pressure test to check clutch operation. VEHICLE IS DISABLED (1) Check fluid level and condition. (2) Check for broken or disconnected gearshift cable. (3) Check for cracked, leaking cooler lines, or loose or missing pressure-port plugs. (4) Raise and support vehicle on safety stands, start engine, shift transmission into gear, and note following: (a) If propeller shaft turns but wheels do not, problem is with differential or axle shafts. (b) If propeller shaft does not turn and transmission is noisy, stop engine. Remove oil pan, and check for debris. If pan is clear, remove transmission and check for damaged driveplate, converter, oil pump, or input shaft. (c) If propeller shaft does not turn and transmission is not noisy, perform hydraulic-pressure test to determine if problem is hydraulic or mechanical. DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - ROAD TESTING Before road testing, be sure the fluid level and control cable adjustments have been checked and adjusted if necessary. Verify that all diagnostic trouble codes have been resolved. Observe engine performance during the road test. A poorly tuned engine will not allow accurate analysis of transmission operation. Operate the transmission in all gear ranges. Check for shift variations and engine flare which indicates slippage. Note if shifts are harsh, spongy, delayed, early, or if part throttle downshifts are sensitive. Slippage indicated by engine flare, usually means clutch, overrunning clutch, or line pressure problems. A slipping clutch can often be determined by comparing which internal units are applied in the various gear ranges. The Clutch Application charts provide a basis for analyzing road test results.

Test Gauge C-3293-SP has a 300 psi range and is used at all locations where pressures exceed 100 psi. Pressure Test Port Locations Only two pressure ports are supplied on the transmission case. The torque converter clutch apply and release ports are located on the right side of the transmission case (Fig. 2). Fig. 3 Pressure Tap Locations Fig. 2 Torque Converter Pressure Locations 1 - TCC RELEASE 2 - TO COOLER 3 - TCC APPLY 4 - FROM COOLER 5 - LINE PRESSURE SENSOR To determine the line pressure, there are two available methods. The DRB scan tool can be used to read line pressure from the line pressure sensor. The second method is to install Line Pressure Adapter 8259 (Fig. 4) into the transmission case and then install the pressure gauge and the original sensor into the adapter. This will allow a comparison of the DRB readings and the gauge reading to determine the accuracy of the line pressure sensor. The DRB line pressure reading should match the gauge reading within ±10 psi. In order to access any other pressure tap locations, the transmission oil pan must be removed, the pressure port plugs removed and Valve Body Pressure Tap Adapter 8258-A (Fig. 5) installed. The extensions supplied with Adapter 8258-A will allow the installation of pressure gauges to the valve body. Refer to (Fig. 3) for correct pressure tap location identification.

Check the transmission for proper operation in each gear position that is in question or if a specific element is in question, check the pressure readings in at least two gear positions that employ that element. Refer to the Hydraulic Schematics at the rear of this section to determine the correct pressures for each element in a given gear position. NOTE: The 45RFE/545RFE utilizes closed loop control of pump line pressure. The pressure readings may therefore vary greatly but should always follow line pressure. Fig. 5 Valve Body Pressure Tap Adapter 8258-A 1 - RFE TRANSMISSION 2 - TOOL 8258-A TEST PROCEDURE All pressure readings should be taken with the transmission fluid level full, transmission oil at the normal operating temperature, and the engine at Some common pressures that can be measured to evaluate pump and clutch performance are the upshift/downshift pressures, garage shift pressures, and TCC pressure. The upshift/downshift pressure for all shifts are shown in UPSHIFT PRESSURES and DOWNSHIFT PRESSURES. In-gear maximum pressure for each gear position is shown in IN-GEAR PRESSURES. The garage shift pressure when performing a N-R shift is 220 psi for 3.7L/4.7L equipped vehicles and 250 psi for 5.7L equipped vehicles. The garage shift pressure for the R-N shift is 120 psi. The garage shift pressure for the N-1 shift is 135 psi for 3.7L/4.7L equipped vehicles and 165 psi for 5.7L equipped vehicles. Torque converter lock-up pressure is 120 psi for 3.7L/4.7L equipped vehicles and 125 psi for 5.7L equipped vehicles.

7 AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION - 45RFE/545RFE DR AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION - 45RFE/545RFE (Continued) DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - AIR CHECKING TRANSMISSION CLUTCH OPERATION fluid spilled during factory fill or fill after repair. Converter housing leaks have several potential sources. Through careful observation, a leak source can be identified before removing the transmission for repair. Torque converter seal leaks tend to move along the drive hub and onto the rear of the converter. Pump cover seal tend to run down the cover and the inside surface of the bellhousing. Some leaks, or suspected leaks, may be particularly difficult to locate. If necessary, a Mopar approved dye may be used to locate a leak. TORQUE CONVERTER LEAK POINTS Fig. 6 Air Pressure Test Passages 1 - LOW REVERSE CLUTCH 2-4TH CLUTCH 3-2ND CLUTCH 4 - OVERDRIVE CLUTCH 5 - UNDERDRIVE CLUTCH 6 - REVERSE CLUTCH Air-pressure testing can be used to check transmission clutch operation. The test can be conducted with the transmission either in the vehicle or on the work bench, as a final check. Air-pressure testing requires that the oil pan and valve body be removed from the transmission. The clutch apply passages are shown in the Air Pressure Test Passages graphic (Fig. 6). NOTE: The air supply which is used must be free of moisture and dirt. Use a pressure of 30 psi to test clutch operation. Apply air pressure at each port. If the clutch is functioning, a soft thump will be heard as the clutch is applied. The clutch application can also be felt by touching the appropriate element while applying air pressure. As the air pressure is released, the clutch should also release. DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - CONVERTER HOUSING FLUID LEAK When diagnosing converter housing fluid leaks, two items must be established before repair. (1) Verify that a leak condition actually exists. (2) Determined the true source of the leak. Some suspected converter housing fluid leaks may not be leaks at all. They may only be the result of residual fluid in the converter housing, or excess Fig. 7 Torque Converter Assembly 1 - TURBINE ASSEMBLY 2-STATOR 3 - CONVERTER HUB 4 - O-RING 5 - IMPELLER ASSEMBLY 6 - CONVERTER CLUTCH PISTON 7 - TURBINE HUB Possible sources of converter leaks are: (1) Leaks at the weld joint around the outside diameter weld (Fig. 7). (2) Leaks at the converter hub weld (Fig. 7). STANDARD PROCEDURE - ALUMINUM THREAD REPAIR Damaged or worn threads in the aluminum transmission case and valve body can be repaired by the use of Heli-Coils, or equivalent. This repair consists of drilling out the worn-out damaged threads. Then tap the hole with a special Heli-Coil tap, or equivalent, and installing a Heli-Coil insert, or equivalent, into the hole. This brings the hole back to its original thread size. Heli-Coil, or equivalent, tools and inserts are readily available from most automotive parts suppliers.

Dry the case and all fluid passages with compressed air. Be sure all solvent is removed from the case and that all fluid passages are clear. NOTE: Do not use shop towels or rags to dry the case (or any other transmission component) unless they are made from lint-free materials. Lint will stick to case surfaces and transmission components and circulate throughout the transmission after assembly. A sufficient quantity of lint can block fluid passages and interfere with valve body operation. INSPECTION Inspect the case for cracks, porous spots, worn bores, or damaged threads. Damaged threads can be repaired with Helicoil thread inserts. However, the case will have to be replaced if it exhibits any type of damage or wear.
